Gary Megson admits he understands that he isn't first choice of the Bolton fans to take charge, but hopes that results will change their minds. Megson feels results will win over the fans.
Megson said: "All I can do is get together with the players and get some results to change that (fan reaction).
"You don't turn up everywhere and get the red carpet laid out for you.
"In terms of the supporters, they are the bedrock of the football club. We need them onside
"I'll give it everything to get things back on track but I have to accept that maybe I am not their number one choice."
Megson was in the crowd to witness Wanderers' 1-1 UEFA Cup draw with Braga and believes despite the side's position at the bottom of the Premier League table there is reason for optimism.
"There were some good players out there," he told Sky Sports News.
"There's things they have done in the past that I will want to change a little but we have good players and an awful lot going for us at this football club."
Speaking about his departure from the Walkers Stadium, Megson conceded it was not an ideal situation but is confident he has made the right decision.
"It's not a case of regrets," he said.
"These opportunities don't come along very often and it would have been nice for everyone if I'd been there two or three years, improved everything and left the club in the Premier League and then this job came along.
"But you can't dictate when these things come along.
"It's not ideal but I have never heard anyone in football say the decision I have made is not the right one."
